[QUOTE="-Jonathan-, post: 749557, member: 38232"] Due to the limited amount of space that my macbook has, i've resorted to have a mix of songs in iTunes that is sourced from the internal hard drive and from my 500 gB hard drive. The startup library for iTunes is pointed directly onto the default music folder within the internal hard drive. When files are usually added to iTunes from hard drives, it plays just fine, with no "lost files". But most of the time after the machine is restarted, some of the files can't be located. The funny thing with this whole scene, will be some files within the folder can be played and some can't. Everytime you remount the external hard drive, different files can be played and some files can't be located. I remember once i managed to make all files playable, but i forgot the sequence to make it work again. Anyone had this problem before? Or at least know of a solution [/QUOTE]
